Steps:
1. Changed my monster species to Adamantoise or Pygmy Adamantoise
2. Equipped Adamantoise Instinct I [HP+5% <Earth Elemental Resist+100> "Resist Sleep"+75]
3. I can visually watch my HP rise but the Earth elemental resistance stays at 0.
4. Changed to Sabotender and equipped Adamantoise Instinct I. Earth elemental resistance rises to approximately 100.
5. Changed to various other monsters and the Earth elemental resistance works as intended.
6. As an Adamantoise and Pygmy Adamantoise, I zoned to Beaucedine Glacier and the bug was still present.
7. I restarted FFXI to see if anything changed and the bug was still present.
Basically, Adamantoise Instinct I works as intended on every monster but Adamantoise and Pygmy Adamantoise. I presume the bug would persist as the Genbu model and Ferromantoise as well.
Please fix this issue.
